PSFS Family Directory - Family List: How to move an adult child who is registered under his family under another parish into your Parish as head-of-household

  1. Find out the full name of the head-of-household and parish under which this adult child's family is registered.
  2. Select Add New Family, search and select the record associated with the original organization > select Add Family as Unregistered: 
  3. Export the adult child's record from this copy of the family record. It will default to a new family record in which the adult child is a registered, active, head-of-household member:
    • All of the sacramental records will follow the member to the new church
    • The original church will retain a copy of this member's records with the following attributes:
  • Note: This person will no longer be in the original family record but will be the head-of-household in their own family record.
  • The record will show the member as inactive and non-registered.
  • All of the religious education records and giving records stay with the first church.
  • The original record in the former church will continue to keep all of the contribution records for this person. This cannot be transferred for several reasons:
  • 1) these are records of contributions to the former church
  • 2) the new church does not have the same funds, etc.
  1. Delete the copy of the un-registered family record.

 

IMPORTANT: As a courtesy, we recommend informing the former church of this move.
